I meant Social Darwinism. To a degree, I support sterilization of certain humans.

Including yourself?

I'm not being snarky here. If you're going to support a law (even a proposed one) then that means you voluntarily submit to having that law applied to you. Suggesting a wide-open generalization like you did, "I support sterilization of certain humans" is dangerous; it leaves it open to any interpretation of what "certain humans" means and you might find yourself included among the sterilization candidates.

You learn something new everyday. I had never heard of godwins law up until just.

My views are as long as it is available to everybody (not just people with money), isnt forced and would be undertaken by the very people who propose/enforce it then I suppose I have no problems with it.

For no matter how much I use these symbols, to describe symptoms of my existence.
You are your own emphasis.
So I say nothing.

When I said "certain humans", I was referring to people covincted of rape, pediphilia, and other sex crimes alongside drug addicts and alcoholics, and possibly feeble-minded people (most constraversial).

You're right that's the most controversial. You start down that slope and it gets slippery very fast. What happens when the "ones in charge" decide you're the feeble-minded one? Or they simply label you as such because they really think you're a clever subversive type and want to castigate/castrate you for it?
